deco M9+ API or web scraping
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
I want to build a script that uses infomation about which device is connected to which of my 3 deco M9's.
I understand from internet search that TO-link does nog provide any kind API to the deco network.
Screen/web scraping is the next best thing - the clients wen page has a dropdown list that allows to select the deco device
However, I found that the communication between the deco and the browser is encrypted in a strange way (encrypted data within regular json)
Does anyone have any clue, suggestion, lead, ... as to how this encryption works and how it is linked to the login process ?
This is what I mean, in the app, when I select a Deco device (like `zolder` or `attic`)
It shoulws a filtered list of the clients connected to that access point.
I'd like to be able to prgrammatically (or web scrape) this page.
The data on the network, however, is a strange JSON object with just one `data` property and some long encrypted string
Anyone has experience with hacking this encrypted data flow (back and forth) ? Must be possible since the frontend is available and somewhat readable.
An API would be ideal of course, but I understand from TP-link there's no intention to work on that - unfortunately.
